CHILD PROTECTION

Mr MARSHALL (Norwood—Leader of the Opposition) (14:32): Supplementary. Is the minister aware that the SAPOL officers investigating the alleged sexual assault of a 13-year-old girl advised parents that they needed to lodge a complaint with the education department to investigate the failure of a teacher to fulfil mandatory reporting obligations, and that is precisely what they did?

The Hon. J.M. RANKINE (Wright—Minister for Education and Child Development, Minister for Multicultural Affairs) (14:33): I have no knowledge of the discussions that SAPOL had with the parents.
